THE FARRAH FLOW
The secret to this flippy masterpiece is a lot of layers and a healthy dose of curtain bangs, says celebrity hairstylist Sarah Potempa. The Farrah Flow works on most hair lengths and face shapes (though curly cuties, fair warning: Layers like these enhance your texture).
MAKE IT YOURS: Potempa says to blow-dry your hair downward at the crown for major volume. Then, with a large barrel curling iron (try the Beachwaver Co. Beachwaver $1.25 Dual Voltage White Rotating Curling Iron, $149, beachwaver.com), roll hair up and away from your face, creating a feathery blend. Use Velcro rollers (like Drybar High Tops Self-Grip Rollers, $12 for 6, sephora.com) on your face-framing strands, allowing them to cool and set while you curl the rest (secure rollers with Harry Josh Pro Tools Makeup Wave Setting Clips, $25 for 6, harryjoshprotools.com). Finish by raking your fingers through the curls to break them apart, then add volume at the roots with texture powder (try DesignMe Puff. Me Volumizing Powder, $24, designmehair.com).
